I use Dunlop Grand Prix ones but I notice that there is a new Dunlop ball called A player that is a bit more expensive.

Has anyone tried this and know whether this is the better than the Grand Prix? Is this just Dunlop Fort renamed for the US market?

Dunlop do indeed "rebrand" for different markets so it's not a bad assumption. I believe Fort is also available in the US though no? There is now "Fort Elite" over here in Europe also. Not sure what the difference is. Feel the same to play with to me.

Dunlop GrandPrix's. Although I have had bad luck with them recently...about a month back I had one explode on me during a point the first day it was used (lost all pressure), this happened again a couple weeks back although it was probably the third day it had been used so most balls would have been completely dead by then anyways. This is the only pressurized ball I have had this happen with.

Explode? Literally torn-open? Wow, never seen or heard of that before. :shock:
